Gender: Female
Age: 128
Year in school: college freshman
Mastery: Student Scholar
Dorm: Orchid
Height: 5'8"
Appearance: imgur.com/a/dExLhyh
Personality: Vatnsafli, or Safi for short, is a bubbly optimist. She has a cheery personality that is hard to bring down. Always trying to brighten up the room with a smile, she wants to make sure people can be happy. Because of this, when her llife takes a turn for the worse, she usually has to find herself a private area to break down to prevent bringing others down with her sadness.
Being optimistic usually plays in her favor, though she often bites off more than she can chew. But no matter what, she will not drop something unless she is forced to. If she promises something will get done by a certain time, she works harder than ever to make sure that it happens.
Though she's always trying to brighten up a room, Vatnsafli has that fragile interior that she makes sure doesn't show that much. SHe always keeps up the cheery smile whether or not it is genuine. It makes her a little bit difficult to read, but means few can be sad when aroudn her. All the while, her optimism makes it easy to do seemingly impossible tasks.
History: ((Will be added later as it is optional. Waiting on a question to get answered by Kiru I believe))
♦ SPECIES INFORMATION ♦
Name of Species: Naiad (Ihpeihpe Water Nymph)Baseline Dimension: Generally anywhere from 4ft to 7ft.
Baseline Appearance: Perhaps the most notable feature of the naiad is that most of their body, or even their entire body, in some cases is made of water. While they can be amorphous blobs if they try, they can also bend their bodily water into more human shapes. While most of their body is translucent, their head is solid and an icy color (and has a skin-like texture) which allows them to have facial features. Like a nose, eyes, and mouth. To fit in better with humanoid society or whatever. Their hair is usually made of water, as well. While they have no organs or other bodily functions, their body can support its own ecosystem by acting as a pseudo fish tank. It isn’t uncommon for naiads to let their favorite fish live inside their bodies or wear a self-grown lilypad as a hat. And they can filter their water to keep the habitat healthy. It is also important to note that their bodies are only made of freshwater, since the species are borne from magical sources of freshwater. Ocean naiads exist but are fundamentally different from freshwater naiads.
Culture/Origin of Species: They originate from the island of Ihpeihpe, in the slightly radioactive, but mostly magical marshy lowlands. Generally referred to as “The Shimmering Marshes”, the magical energies here spurned the waters here into a life form. After many years of stagnancy, the Naiads were gifted intelligence by the “Enlightenment of Ihpeihpe”. After a short period of confusion, the now-sentient Naiad populations became living in small, closely knit communities. Although not needing food, water, sleep, or other bodily functions of the sort, they created underwater dwellings for a more comfortable life. As a people, they are carefree and calm, much like the waters they live in. The reproduction of the Naiads is a closely guarded secret, it is a magical rite that gives life to a small body of water. Their society is connected to the other species of Ihpeihpe by their alchemical trade. Within their magically charged swamps, many powerful reagents grow and prosper, and naturally, after years of experimenting, they have become experts in alchemy. The most devote alchemist even grow their own ingredients inside their liquid bodies.
Traits:
• Aqueous: Having a liquid body is a boon. Bullets? Knives? No wounds left. It doesn’t mean that they don’t feel pain, necessarily, but it’s a lot harder to injure a puddle than a human. Just don’t trust them to hold a paper for you. +3 to resilience.
• Cellular respiration is for losers: As Naiads are nonliving creatures, they don’t need to sleep, eat, drink, etc. They also don’t age.
Flaws:
• Incompatible: Due to their unique form of reproduction, they cannot make half-breeds or be part of a hybrid being.
